Uprising In The Plot! After Transmigrating, The Bigshots Pampered Me Novel - Chapter 35

Chapter 35: Calming the Storm

What Yu Yao didn’t know was that things weren’t as simple as Yu Lang had said.

In order to help Yu Jue clean up the mess, the three Yu brothers and Yu Jue’s management team didn’t sleep at all throughout the night. In addition to contacting the platform to remove the trending topics and communicating with the PR company about how to guide the discussion, there was also a specialized legal team that was continuously collecting evidence to prepare for legal action.

At night, when the social media traffic was at its peak, Yu Jue’s studio issued a statement warning unscrupulous anti-fans about fabricating facts and damaging Yu Jue and Yu Yao’s reputations. They would take legal action against individuals who maliciously slandered them.

Not only did this statement fail to calm the situation, it even incited the netizens’ anger. Without any intervention, their keywords immediately began trending.

It wasn’t until the next day that many marketing accounts deleted their previous posts. The netizens’ insults were also blocked. Only then did they understand that Yu Jue’s studio was serious about taking legal action.

After the netizens calmed down a little, Yu Jue’s Studio and the Yu Corporation’s accounts released another statement, simply stating the truth.

However, people were somewhat speechless to discover that the focus of these statements was not Yu Jue, the central figure of the incident. Instead, they were focused on explaining that the younger sister, who could only be considered a supporting character, was not in a relationship with her “ex-boyfriend” at all. It was just that the boy named Gao Cheng was maliciously taking revenge on his younger sister after failing to court her, and he had then been detained by the police for extortion and blackmail.

The statement was also accompanied by a screenshot of Gao Cheng chatting with his comrades. It showed in detail that he and the others had discussed using nude photos and videos from who-knew-where to threaten Yu Yao.

Gao Cheng’s chat records had been recovered by the police and were being investigated. Yu Lang had gotten someone to communicate with the police and obtained these screenshots.

Although the police couldn’t provide more evidence because the case was still under investigation, the screenshots were enough to prove the truth.

It had only been less than 24 hours since the incident had started to spread before it ended. Public opinion completely changed. On the one hand, people were cursing Gao Cheng, and on the other hand, they deeply pitied Yu Jue and Yu Yao, who had been wronged. At this moment, people felt that it was completely understandable for Yu Jue to have hit someone, and they felt that this brother who would stand up for his sister was simply too awesome!

Yu Jue was being praised by people and had a fan base of a few hundred thousand. The production team of “The Side I Don’t Know” had long prepared to release the news that Yu Jue and his sister were going to participate in this season’s variety show together.

At this moment, the netizens were very curious about Yu Jue and his sister. They expressed their strong support for the show, all leaving anticipatory comments!

It was this piece of news from the production team that made Yu Wan, who had been quiet for a while, start to act.

Of course, Yu Wan knew about the residential area that Yu Lang, Yu Heng, and Yu Jue lived in together. After all, the villa’s location was a little remote. The three Yu brothers were all very busy with work, so they wouldn’t be at the villa most of the time.

However, Yu Wan had not expected that Yu Yao would be living in the same building as the three Yu brothers. Moreover, she lived on the same floor as them!

Yu Wan knew the time when Yu Lang got home from work and was waiting for him downstairs. However, the first people she saw were Yu Jue and Yu Yao.

Yu Jue had taken Yu Yao to sign the contract with the production team in the afternoon and came home via a minivan. They heard Yu Wan calling them when they arrived downstairs.

“Third Brother, Sister?” Yu Wan forced herself to wear a decent smile. “Why are you back together?”

Yu Yao replied with an unfriendly expression, “None of your business!”

After that, she did not want to waste any more time on Yu Wan. She left Yu Jue behind and went upstairs.

Yu Jue also wanted to go home with Yu Yao, but Yu Wan grabbed his sleeve.

The uncontrollable feeling in Yu Wan’s heart intensified. She was anxious to gain a sense of security from Yu Jue. “Third Brother, why is Sister here? Did you let her stay in your apartment?”

Hearing this, Yu Jue felt a little sad and said glumly, “If only Yaoyao was willing to stay in my apartment.”

When they went to sign the contract with the production crew earlier, the director had briefly explained the filming process and said that it would be best for the siblings to live together. Yu Yao had firmly objected. The director probably felt that Yu Yao was a typical younger sister who was going through a rebellious phase and didn’t want to spend too much time with her older brother. He felt that if the two of them didn’t live together, it would become quite the topic of discussion, so he actually agreed to Yu Yao’s ridiculous suggestion.

Yu Wan could not understand Yu Jue’s feelings at all. She asked anxiously, “Then why is Sister here? Why does she have the elevator card for the building?”

“Yaoyao is a resident here, so of course she has an elevator card,” Yu Jue said impatiently. “What’s the matter? I’m in a hurry to discuss the shoot with Yaoyao.”

Yu Wan choked on his words. She suppressed the unhappiness in her heart and said, “I wanted to be on that variety show too. Why did you only invite her? I’m clearly your sister too..”
